La Aurora

The cigar started off not how I expected with a wave of strength and some very full flavors. I enjoyed it, especially as it smoothed out fairly quickly. The first third was the best and then became less complex in each subsequent third. The La Aurora ADN Dominicano is a good example of what a cigar that uses andullo can do and I'm thinking this might do well for La Aurora.

I would label this cigar as a typical Connecticut offering. Nothing fancy and nothing bad about it. If you like the typical Connecticut profile, this is something to check out as the price point is fantastic.

La Aurora is pleased to release the La Aurora 1903 Cameroon. The 1903 Cameroon is a line extension of the “time capsule” series, which also boasts the 1962 Corojo and 1987 Connecticut. These blends are dedicated to the years in which they began working with the type of respective wrapper used on each. The La Aurora 1903 Cameroon will begin this week.

I found a consistently tasty profile with good complexities and transitions. But the lack in flavor depth caused the cigar to stay good but not very good. Even with that said, I will gladly smoke more of these.

This is a really good, budget friendly cigar. While price doesn't factor in to our scoring, it is worth noting. This would be approachable to any level smoker and some may find it as an ideal daily smoke.

La Aurora is pleased to announce the launch of its new product: Black Lion. Four blends - Black Lion Connecticut, Black Lion Cameroon, Black Lion Corojo and Black Lion Maduro - full of taste that represents four different types of choices.
